The latest to join the local language computing bandwagon is the open-source community that has been trying local language versions for the past two years or so. Consider the recently released IndLinux Milan v0.37, with a Hindi interface by Mumbai-based Netcore Solutions. Says Prakash Advani, Co-founder, IndLinux.org, Netcore Solutions, “Hindi is the third largest language in the world, yet there are no operating systems available in this language. IndLinux.org therefore decided to make Hindi support available for free to create a revolution in Indian language computing”.

From ChannelTimes:

“The cost of Indian language computing is very high in the market. One has to make additional investment to get the Indian language proprietary software. Thus Linux being a free OS, we decided to come out with the Hindi version in Linux, by which Hindi-speaking masses would come into the mainstream of the digital age,said Advani.
